Vomitoxin is a byproduct of a fungus that grows on wheat that has been exposed to excessive rain during a key development period of the crop's development.

Company says, "All finished products are tested at a third-party laboratory for melamine, cyanuric acid, salmonella, and a range of other aflatoxins and vomitoxins before they are released for sale."

Modulation of nitric oxide, hydrogen peroxide and cytokine production in a clonal macrophage model by the trichothecene vomitoxin (deoxynivalenol).

These fungi produce heat-stable tricothecene mycotoxins called vomitoxin [(6)].

In 1998, Maragos adapted capillary electrophoresis to measure another type of mycotoxin -- deoxynivalenol, commonly called vomitoxin. This mycotoxin is associated with wheat scab, a problem that's cost wheat growers around $3 billion in losses over the last 3 years.

Effects of feeding White Leghorn hens diets that contain deoxynivalenol (vomitoxin)contaminated wheat.

corn belt during the summer and fall led to sharp increases in demand for test kits to detect the presence of mycotoxins, especially vomitoxin.

We have built our own testing facility and are the first to post results from every production batch online so consumers can see our food is free of melamine, cyanuric acid, vomitoxin, and aflatoxin.

A 5 g sample of grain from each F1 and parent was analyzed for DON with the EZ-Quant Vomitoxin Test Kit (Diagnostix Company, Mississauga, ON).
